Episode 198. Living Free: How Eddy Puyol Rediscovered His Joy and His Voice

On this episode of The Corelink Solution with James “Trig” Rosseau Sr., artist and entrepreneur Eddy Puyol opens up about rediscovering joy after seasons of pain, the freedom that comes from spiritual surrender, and how he’s stepping boldly into a new chapter of creativity and purpose. Known for his authenticity and passion, Puyol’s conversation with Trig is an honest look at what it means to rebuild from the inside out—and come out shining.

From Pain to Purpose

The episode begins with Eddy recalling how hard it was to even listen to his song “Get Away.” Every time he heard it, he could still feel the ache of what he’d been going through at that time. “I cannot for the life of me sing that song,” he admitted. “I hear the pain and emotion that I was going through and I could feel it.” But where pain once dominated, joy has taken its place. “I’m happy,” Eddy shared. “I’m to the moon right now. I’m excited. I’m living life, bro. I’m joyful—and it’s beaming and exuding out of me.”

This transparency set the tone for the conversation. Trig and Eddy dove deep into how joy doesn’t erase pain—it redeems it. They discussed how real healing often starts when you stop performing for others and let yourself feel again.

The Power of Renewal

Throughout the episode, Eddy reflected on how success and purpose have evolved for him. Once focused on achievement and hustle, he’s now centered on alignment and gratitude. Trig guided the conversation toward spiritual growth, exploring how faith and self-awareness reshape your definition of success.

Eddy shared that part of his renewal came from surrendering control—trusting that God’s timing and plans are better than his own. “I had to learn how to let go,” he said. “Not everything that looks like loss is loss. Sometimes it’s God clearing space.”

The two also discussed the importance of community and accountability in staying grounded. Trig emphasized that isolation is often where burnout begins, while genuine connection and mentorship can restore clarity and peace.

Creating from Overflow

As Eddy looks toward the future, his creative process has changed too. No longer writing from pain, he’s now creating from overflow—a place of joy and freedom. “This is what’s bleeding out of me now,” he said. “People can feel it and resonate with it.”

Trig noted how that shift can be heard in Eddy’s recent work and seen in how he carries himself. Their conversation underscored that true artistry—and true leadership—come from living in authenticity. When you heal, your art heals too.

Lessons on Living Free

This episode isn’t just about music; it’s about life. Both men reflected on how we often tie our identity to productivity, but God calls us to something deeper: peace. They spoke about slowing down, choosing joy intentionally, and building rhythms of gratitude even in chaos.

For listeners, Eddy’s story is an invitation to stop pretending and start healing—to trust that the same God who allowed the pain can also rewrite your story with joy.

Final Takeaway

The conversation between Trig and Eddy Puyol is a masterclass in emotional honesty, spiritual maturity, and creative rebirth. It reminds us that freedom doesn’t come from escaping our past—it comes from surrendering it.

Whether you’re in a season of rebuilding or celebration, this episode will challenge you to let your life and your work reflect what’s truly within you: peace, passion, and purpose.
